The BEST Cranberry Sauce on Earth
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This cranberry sauce is out of this world. My husband loves it so much that he asks me to make it all the time - he always... wants a batch of this stuff in the fridge. It is just delicious. I can't say enough about it. It is also extremely easy to make which is why it is not a big deal for me to always have a batch of this prepared for my hubby. Thank you Paula for this wonderful recipe and for making it so easy for me to make my hubby happy! :-)Read more

Very good results at Thanksgiving dinner
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Best cranberrys I've ever had at Thanksgiving. The only complaint is that we had a ton left over. We scaled the recipe... down for 12 oz of fresh cranberries and it probably would have served 12+ people... at least at our dinner it would have. Very good flavor combination.Read more

This is simple and very pretty cranberry sauce. My ten year old son choped the apples and nuts,And my eight year old son did... all the measuring. We made it the day before, and it was so good with our Thanksgiving dinner,We even fed it to my one year old son, he loved it. Thanks Mrs. Paula. Read more

So much better than the can!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was super simple, with outstanding flavor and texture. It is just the right balance of sweet and tart. I substituted... orange juice for the Grand Marinier, cut back on the cinnamon (1/8 teaspoon) and left out the nutmeg. I didn't know whether to peel the apple or not, but I did and it worked out fine. Read more

Words can't describe it!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is the only recipe I will ever use! My boyfriend and I love cranberry sauce, but this was beyond anything we have had... before! We made two batches, and my family devoured it for Thanksgiving! We were all eating spoonfuls of it with each bite of turkey (and the turkey was amazing too!). Thanks Paula, this is awesome!Read more
